Constance Helen Gladman (23 December 1922 – 30 November 1964), also known as Sr. Mary Rosina, was a professed religious of the Daughters of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart and a Servant of God. There is current action to seek her canonisation.
She was born in Koroit, Victoria the oldest of seven children, raised in and educated in Warrnambool and Melbourne.[1]
She died in Kokopo (Near Rabaul), on the island of New Britain, Papua New Guinea. Sister Rosina was beheaded in her classroom while working as a teaching nun among impoverished communities.
There is a push for her canonisation as a martyr.[2][1]
